And there go the goalposts! From the OP:
Quote:...the predominant religion in their planet is very compatible with Christianity...
The death and resurrection of Jesus is the keystone of Christianity If the alien Jesus didn't die on the cross, their religion is in no way compatible with your particular flavour of Christianity.
Yes, the death and resurrection would still have happened. Just not by way of a cross, since this is another planet and I assume they would have different means of execution.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
